# 4.2. Using the Taskbar

The taskbar displays a list of small icons, one for each window on the desktop. In the default KDE setup the taskbar is located in the top left corner, but it can also be located at the top or the bottom of the screen.

The taskbar is very powerful: A simple click with the left mouse button on the appropriate taskbar button will bring you to the selected application immediately. Click an entry with the middle mouse button to iconify/deiconify a window. Last but not least, the right mouse button will pop up a context menu, with window operations for the selected window.
